Sound designer, realisator and cofounder of Sonya
Marine is a radio writer and realisator since 2011 and also a musician and visual artist. She composes universes studded with various sounds, full of fantasy and absurdity. Her practice is punctuated by collaborations, improvisation, orality and music. She has written and directed several documentaries and sound fictions: "Les Cryptés" in 2011 with Marion Cros, "Dead Meat" in 2013, both produced and broadcast by Arte Radio, as well as "[Berserkir"](https://soundcloud. com/collectif-cach) in 2014 with Marion Cros and "Fins du monde" in 2016 with Christophe Deleu, both supported by the Guliver grant and broadcasted in the program "PAR OUI DIRE" on RTBF, as well as other sound creations of all kinds, multichannel pieces, reports, or musical compositions in different frameworks such as live performance, video, cassette edition... She is also a creator of sound walks since 2014 and enhances her practice since 2021 with sound effects.
Author and cofounder of Sonya

Sound director and cofounder of Sonya
Audrey is a sound director for podcasts, sound creations and radio.
She is also developing a production and coordination activity for cultural projects, mainly in the field of radio and sound. In June 2021, she won the podcast competition organised by the association Plan Sonore, in the beginner category. In August 2022, she attended a professional training course at the Institut National de l'Audiovisuel to obtain the "Radio and podcast production" certification.
She leads radio practice workshops and media education actions, in particular within Radio Caddie.
Graphic designer, artist and programmer
Marjorie usually defines herself as a person from the image world. Trained in graphic design and then self-taught in programming, sound is a great unknown for her, who has always evolved in a world of silence. In Sonya, she is a bit like Amadeus in the movie Sound of Noise, the cop born in a family of musicians who hates music, except that Marjorie is curious and excited by the prospect of exposing herself to sound and experimenting with this new material (and she is not a cop).
